Over 65% of respondents agreed: "The retail industry ignores the needs of plus-size women.”

74% of plus-size women feel "frustrated" when they're in a store and over 80% said that they'd spend more on clothing if there were more options available in their size.

Over the past year, Modcloth has grown its plus-size vendors from 35 to 160 to meet the demands of this fast-growing segment which, according to the retailer's internal figures, is projected to double in sales volume from 2013 to 2014.
